Contingency plans were created and put in place under a risk management approach where priorities were clearly established and tackled upfront.

Regarding Business Continuity, we continue to follow the work being done through several exercises and dimensions
Risk assessmentWhat are the major risks creating a direct or indirect impact to our operations, and what can we do to avoid / mitigate it
PrioritizationIf all avoidance / mitigation measure fail, what should we stop and what are the prioritization criteria – ex. Commercial value of the products, annual forecast, customer impact, public health impact, etc.
Contingency planIf we stop, how should we do it in a safe way, what mitigation actions need to be taken
RestartWhen we can restart, what are the priorities, what do we need to do, how much time would it take
This way we can keep our operations running and continue accomplishing our mission: saving lives
